I am more than reasonably sure that things were not supposed to go this catastrophically wrong.

- Elrond, on more occasions than can be counted, The History of Middle-Earth as recorded across multiple volumes

What do the Elves call their friends living by the sea? Watermellons.

They call them dead because Fëanor killed them.

Burn.

Yep. I’m obsessed. This is a fact.

Fall of Gondolin John Howe

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings (via words-and-coffee)

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring (via mhysas)

[any huge middle earth conflict]

Gandalf: ima get a baggins 

J.R.R. Tolkien, Unfinished Tales (via larmoyante)

Of the 6,500+ years Elrond spent on Middle Earth, he spent less than 200 of them with his twin brother because he left for Numenor and then died of old age. And Elrond will live on till the end of time in Valinor without ever seeing Elros again.  (✿◡‿◡)

Tom Bombadil

Tom Bombadil goes up to the counter and tries to order a chai tea, which would undoubtedly add a lot of nuance and complexity to the Starbucks world. The barista ignores him.

Felt like drawing this which is about famous dragons that lived on Middle Earth. If people thought Smaug was huge, well he is basically an ant compared to Ancalagon. Granted, I am not so sure if I got the other dragon’s sizes and look correct, but I wanted to basically do my take on them.

For Let’s Draw The Hobbit - current project is ugly sweaters

I’m quite late this time, but still not too late, so have some noble elves who (should) wear their sweaters with pride.
